What Causes Ring Like Formation On The Ankle?

Hello, My name is Sam. My friends baby has bright red rings around her ankle. We thought they were from her socks but we have removed them and there still there so I felt them. They are bumped out and really hurting her I was wondering what they are. (Her socks have been off for 6hrs)

Hello,

It could be due to minor contusion. Apply ice packs for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
